Playing your Xbox on your computer is not possible. Playing on your monitor is another matter, but you asked about the computer.

I hate to break this to you, but your moniter is always set to input... it can't really output anything.

I would trying hooking the adaptor from the Xbox to the moniter and try turning them on. You might be able to bring up a menu on the moniter to set it to a different input.

Well, my moniter has a button on the front that let's it switch between displaying my computer and displaying whatever else is plugged in. Just look around and you should be able to find it.
